A project funded by LIXIL Corporation has improved hygiene conditions for over 40,000 students in impoverished communities of Vietnam. New bathrooms were constructed at four primary schools, handwashing stations were installed at 22 schools, and hygiene education trainings were delivered to students and teachers at 90 schools.

Off the Agenda and into the Field

Guest blogger Sean Kline does double duty as Thrive Networks' VP of Education and Executive Director of Reach Global. Sean attended the World Toilet Summit in Delhi this January, but says the highlight of his trip was visiting rural villages with representatives from Gram Vikas, an organization that works with rural and tribal communities in India and Africa.

In this post he introduces us to the very specific approach Gram Vikas takes to empower communities to construct, manage, and maintain their own sanitation facilities, and the critical role behavior change education plays in the process.
